6.2.3 Popular bolts for steel structures must conform to the requirements of TCVN 1916:1995.

The
tensile strength level of the bolt must be from 4.6 or higher. High strength bolts shall comply with the
respective specific regulations. The calculated strength of a one-bolt connection is determined according
to the formulas in Table 9.

The calculated strength values for shear and tensile strength of bolts according to the strength level of
the bolt are given in Table 10. The calculated strength of face stress of steel in bolt connections is given
in Table 11.
